Terms of Service & Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 25, 2026

Before you publish this: This was drafted to be honest, plain, and reasonably complete for a small software product — but it is not legal advice, and I'm not a lawyer. I've filled in every blank to the best of my ability (business name: Fresh Coast Dance, governing state: Wisconsin, a 14-day refund policy, 90-day data retention after cancellation) based on what I know about your business — please review each of those, especially the refund policy, since that's a business decision only you should finalize. Given that this product now handles other business owners' payment relationships and their studios' data, it's worth a real lawyer's review before this goes out to strangers — even a one-time consultation is usually inexpensive relative to the risk of getting something wrong in a contract you're asking people to agree to.

Terms of Service

1. Who this agreement is with

These terms are an agreement between you (the studio, business, or individual creating an account — "you," "the studio") and Fresh Coast Dance ("we," "us"), the operator of The Dance Studio Scheduler (the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these terms.

2. What the Service is

The Service is a schedule-building and sharing tool for dance studios: a class scheduler, a separate company/rehearsal scheduler, public read-only links for parents and staff, and related features. It is provided as-is, and we may add, change, or remove features over time.

3. Accounts

4. Subscriptions & payment

5. Your content and data

6. Public and shared links

The Service is designed to let you generate links (public parent view, staff rehearsal view) that don't require a login. Anyone with a link can view — and, for the rehearsal link specifically, add or remove open-studio bookings — the corresponding schedule. You're responsible for who you share these links with and understanding what each link type allows.

7. Availability & changes

We aim to keep the Service available and your data intact, but we don't guarantee uninterrupted access. We may update, modify, or discontinue features with reasonable notice where practical. We recommend periodically using the "Print / Save as PDF" feature to keep your own offline copy of any schedule that matters to you.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We don't guarantee the Service will be error-free, uninterrupted, or fit for any particular purpose. You're responsible for verifying your own schedule before relying on it for real-world commitments like registrations, venue bookings, or staff pay.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Fresh Coast Dance is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service, including lost revenue, lost data, or scheduling errors. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose.

10. Termination

You may stop using the Service and cancel your subscription at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access for violating these terms. Upon termination, your right to access the Service ends; we may retain your data for a reasonable period afterward as described in the Privacy Policy below, or delete it, depending on the circumstances.

11. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Wisconsin, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

12. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated terms. Material changes will be noted with an updated "Last updated" date at the top of this page.

Privacy Policy

1. What we collect

2. How we use it

3. Who we share it with

We use a small number of third-party service providers to run the Service, and your data passes through them as a normal part of how the product works:

We don't share your data with anyone else except as required by law, or with your explicit consent.

4. Public and shared links

Data you choose to make visible via a public parent link or staff rehearsal link is, by design, accessible to anyone who has that link — that's the intended purpose of those features. Teacher names are deliberately excluded from public links; everything else shown on those links (class names, ages/levels, times, studio branding) should be treated by you as visible to anyone you share the link with, directly or indirectly.

5. Data retention

We keep your account and schedule data for as long as your account is active. If you cancel your subscription, your data remains accessible in a read-only or limited state for 90 days, after which it may be deleted. If you want your data deleted sooner, contact us.

6. Your choices

7. Children's data

The Service is intended for use by studio owners, staff, and parents — adults managing scheduling information. Class rosters may reference minors' first names or class levels as entered by the studio, but the Service is not directed at children, and we don't knowingly collect personal information directly from children.

8. Security

We rely on our infrastructure providers' security practices (Google Firebase, Stripe, Netlify) and apply access-control rules restricting who can read or write each studio's data. No system is perfectly secure, and we can't guarantee absolute security, but we take reasonable, industry-standard steps to protect your information.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time; material changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date above.
